Abstract: Three analytic stage-discharge formulas, suitable for hand calculation, have been derived for prismatic open channels. The three types of prismatic geometry investigated are: simple rectangular, symmetric, and asymmetric ...

Abstract: This paper presents a method to predict depth-averaged velocity and bed shear stress for overbank flows in straight rectangular two-stage channels. An analytical solution to the depth-integrated Navier–Stokes equation is ...

Abstract: Some laboratory sediment-transport experiments are described in which a compound channel with a mobile-bed composed of uniform sand with a

Abstract: In this paper, the authors present experimental results of overbank flow in compound channels with nonprismatic floodplains and different convergence angles. The depth-averaged velocity, the local velocity distributions, ...

Abstract: The distribution of boundary shear stress in circular conduits flowing partially full, with and without a smooth flat bed simulating deposited sediments, has been examined experimentally ranging from 0.375 < F < 1.96 and 6.5 × 10

Abstract: A new solution to the stable-channel paradox has been derived based on the contribution of secondary flow to the redistribution of boundary shear stress. This new solution was then combined with the entropy-based bank ...

Abstract: Experimental results are presented concerning the boundary shear stress and boundary shear force distributions in a compound section comprising of one rectangular main channel and two symmetrically disposed flood plains. ...

Abstract: The results of some laboratory experiments are reported concerning the distribution of boundary shear stresses in smooth closed ducts of a rectangular cross section for aspect ratios between 1 and 10. The distributions are ...
